Water truly is a tool for the body. It helps with hydration, organ health, headaches, hunger, and weight loss to mention just a few of its benefits. A properly hydrated body from water intake will help the kidneys function along with other organs that process the different substances that move throughout the body.
Massage Therapists recommend drinking water before a massage because it will hydrate the muscles which makes them easier to manipulate. A good example would be to think of your muscles as a sponge. A dry sponge is not all that easy to move however once it is moistened with water you are able to squish it and squeeze it as much as you like. When you drink water before a massage in a sense does the same to your muscles as it does to the sponge… making it easier for your therapist to be able to work your body. Your connective tissue/fascia is more elastic when hydrated and allows you full benefit of receiving massage.
Once your massage is over you’ll need to drink water again to rehydrate your muscles. While you receive massage, through the manipulation of the muscles (more…)

I was so excited when I saw a segment on TV talking about stopping bacteria via our make-up bag! Guys…you need to listen up too! I’ve always been a big advocate for detoxing our environment, and the practice of freezing your make-up bag & dop kit is one of the most sure fire ways to help kill and stave off bacteria!
First off, make sure your make-up items are in a metal case if at all possible. Bacteria has a difficult time penetrating metal containers vs. plastic ones. Once a week, place your make-up bag or dop kit in the freezer overnight. The cold of the freezer helps to kill any existing bacteria on your make-up and shaving essentials. Make sure to leave yourself a note that reminds you to remove (more…)

As adults we take great care in keeping children safe from harsh winter elements. Do we take the same care for ourselves? For most of us…probably not. We have many people that depend on us to be fully functioning, especially during cold and flu season. Most of us “know” how to bundle up, but here are a few suggestions that may make bundling up almost enjoyable!
One important choice in gearing up for winter is snow boots. I know, I know…they are cumbersome and messy, but necessary. Once trick I have learned over the years is to keep a pair of neutral colored shoes at work…that way I can head out the door in my boots and not worry about grabbing another pair of shoes to change in to. Hats and gloves are also important when gearing up for winter. 90% of our body heat escapes through our head and extremities. Keeping our head, feet, and hands covered is crucial. These items will allow your body to retain that ‘lost’ heat. Your body won’t have to work as hard to keep you warm. I have also found that in harsh weather, messy hair is acceptable…so long as it is due to “hat head”.
My favorite winter accessory… (more…)

Flexibility… a lot of life’s schedule just doesn’t afford us such a comfort. We all, at some point, have wished that things in life could be more flexible.
I get it! I make it a priority to understand the value of flexibility when it comes to our clients.
I’ve thought long and hard about what clients have told me they want in their skincare and massage services! I’ve taken it to heart…and here are just a few of the flexible options that we offer:
- the flexibility of the services we offer! We are able to accommodate a multitude of skin issues, budgets and lifestyles!
-on-line booking… gives you a chance to book at your convenience!
-reminder calls the day before appointments…allows you to reschedule your appointment if “life” has gotten in the way again, and you are unable to make it. (more…)

With the cold and flu season upon us, we will all come in contact with some sort of virus. Ear candling is a way to help relieve sinus pressure, ear infections, sinusitis, headaches, and post nasal drip.
Ear candling is performed with the client lying on his or her side. A long hollow candle is inserted into the ear and then lit. The smoke of the candle is pulled down into the ear causing the ear to warm up and loosen the wax and other debris inside the eardrum. As the ear warms up, the candle will cause suction which creates a vacuum in the ear canal…that is how the toxins are removed from the inner ear and sinus canal. After the candle has burned the appropriate amount of time, it is removed from the ear. When you look inside the hollow candle…you can actually see the wax and toxins that were removed from your ear!
Ear Candling isn’t a treatment meant only for cold weather, best results are when it it’s performed every three months. It is quick, and painless…so why not call today to make your appointment!

Maybe you should try it! Whether you are looking for hair removal, acne treatments, rejuvenation, anti-aging or just plain old stress reduction, at Kimberly Spa we take pride in addressing your individual concerns.
My own father was very reluctant to get spa treatments when I became an esthetician 15 years ago. He is an “old-school” kind of guy…raised in an era when men never got these types of treatments. At first, I had to talk him in to it…but now he is not only comfortable getting treatments, he actually looks forward to them! He leaves feeling refreshed, with unclogged pores and with younger, healthier looking skin.
A first-time male client (age 50+) who had never been into a spa before describes his experience…”I had a good feeling as soon as I walked in to Kimberly Spa. It was luxurious, and comfortable…while still being clinically professional. They earned my trust.”
Ladies, if you have a boyfriend, brother, father, spouse or just a good male friend who is curious about what a “spa experience” is all about…share our “Look Good~Feel Good” secret and send them to Kimberly Spa! They will love it just as much as you do, and it will be an experience they’ll never forget!

Toxins are all around us. We naturally get toxins from the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the state of stress we are in. Unfortunately, a buildup of toxins in the body can become harmful and even increase the chances of becoming ill.
Did you know that our bodies are made up of many electrically charged cells? Sometimes these cells can become off balance due to the buildup of toxins. When those cells are out of balance they aren’t able to function correctly to keep a person healthy. Foot detox baths use the thousands of sweat glands in our feet to help take out some of those unhealthy toxins. A foot detox bath also puts safe positive and negative ions back into the body through those same glands! These ions then gradually help to bring the body back into balance. (more…)

These days we are bombarded with information from TV, radio, billboards, print and the internet. This can get quite confusing when you know you want to improve your skin but don’t
know who to trust and how to communicate your concerns. Hopefully we can help with a little technical jargon of some common skin conditions to get you asking the right questions. Knowledge is key in gaining results!
Hyperpigmentation- Darkening of the skin in areas due to sun exposure, a wound, inflammation, acne or injury. Hyperpigmentation can be temporary or permanent. Also known as sun spots, age spots, liver spots, or larger areas of hyperpigmentation can occur during pregnancy, known as melasma. Common Treatments: Skin lightening serum or cream like Visual Changes Lightening Serum daily and facial treatments like chemical peels, microdermabrasion and Photo Rejuvenation based on your esthetician’s advice.
Broken Capillaries- Small red or pink threads under the skin’s surface commonly found on the cheeks or nose area. These occur when capillary walls narrow and (more…)

“Summer really jacks with my skin! I stay out of the sun as much as possible…wear a hat… use a high SPF Sunscreen… I’m always searching for shade! My skin feels really rough and dry… I mean really sandpaper-like. And I always feel like my nose is so red and is ready to explode off my face! I’ve tried to cover it with make-up but it just isn’t working. I need help!”
This is a scenario I put together from the many different clients that have come to me with this typical summer skin problem. The answer is skin treatments and nutrition. I’ve done a lot of research pertaining to irritated skin and I can tell you with great certainty that the Pevonia RS2 Facial Treatment will calm down, sooth and cool off your hot, swollen, aching, acne skin. I’ve seen it a hundred times! This treatment really excites me because you can see the difference in just one treatment. So imagine what regular treatments every 2 to 3 weeks could do!

As a kid, our loving parents doled out the fruity flavored chewable vitamins before breakfast or bedtime, and we gladly chomped away at them as more of a treat than a chore. Things are not as easy these days.
Most of us don’t have a handy assistant ready to give us our daily intake of vitamins, and prepare our well-balanced meals for the day. It’s easy to forget about putting proper nutrition and vitamins in our bodies to fuel us for our busy lives, and treat our bodies well.
Good nutrition is key in having healthy and glowing skin. If you want a beautiful garden, you fertilize the soil to make it rich and ready to grow big beautiful plants. Well, your skin is the plant and vitamins are the fertilizer! We are all really good at applying our anti-aging creams and getting our facials every month, but we forget about what goes in must come out.
Pevonia Botanica has really addressed this with their Pevo-Vital drink mixes that are full of complexion boosting anti-oxidants. They remind us of taking the fruity vitamins as a kid, only they are perfect for on the go moms, dads, professionals, and hectic men and women. You simply add the powder pouch to your water bottle, shake and enjoy! Yum!
Some vitamins are effective for skin both internally and externally. Vitamin A can help fight wrinkles and even acne when it is applied externally to (more…)
